From Kevin Ford, this photograph and letter in reply to my query about the very odd cloud formations seen on above Waterville on Saturday morning:
"The clouds in the picture are Undulatus asperatus clouds. More info on them can be found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Undulatus_asperatushttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Undulatus_asperatus. They weren't a cloud type that we studied during my 4 years of meteorology classes at SUNY Oswego since they were not an official cloud type (and as far as I know they still are not). I believe in the US they are found more often out in the Plains. This is the 2nd time this year that I have seen them here. The attached picture was taken on March 24th as I left the UC Science Fair with some of my students and their families. It caused everyone to stop and stare and of course ask me questions about something that I had never seen before."
Thanks very much, Kevin!
